      <description>&lt;p&gt;External Secrets Operator reads information from a third-party service and automatically injects the values as Kubernetes Secrets. Starting in version 0.10.0 and prior to version 1.3.2, a bug in the `webhook` generator initialization order incorrectly cleared the label-enforcement flag (`EnforceLabels`) after it was set, resulting in the provider-side check for `external-secrets.io/type=webhook` being skipped (and the operation to succeed while it should have failed with `secret does not contain needed label &amp;#39;external-secrets.io/type: webhook&amp;#39;. Update secret label to use it with webhook`. Version 1.3.2 contains a patch.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>GHSA-q7hv-xx6h-q2x8 — External Secrets Operator: label enforcement bypass in webhook generator enables secret exfiltration</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/ghsa-q7hv-xx6h-q2x8</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Go: github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Summary
A bug in the `webhook` generator initialization order incorrectly cleared the label-enforcement flag (`EnforceLabels`) after it was set, resulting in the provider-side check for `external-secrets.io/type=webhook` being skipped (and the operation to succeed while it should have failed with `secret does not contain needed label &amp;#39;external-secrets.io/type: webhook&amp;#39;. Update secret label to use it with webhook`.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Impact
A user with the permission to create webhook generator can set the webhook generator to a victim&amp;#39; secret (which was not previously labelled for webhook&amp;#39;s use), and exfiltrate it to a malicious URL.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Mitigations
Until you upgrade, you can reduce risk by:
- disabling webhook generators if not needed (or denying `generators.external-secrets.io/v1alpha1` `Webhook` via an admission policy);
- restricting RBAC: limit who can create generators of kind `Webhook`;
- enforcing an admission policy (OPA Gatekeeper / Kyverno) requiring referenced secrets to be labeled `external-secrets.io/type=webhook`;
- restricting egress from external-secrets controller pods to an allowlist (kubernetes `NetworkPolicy` / service mesh egress policy).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## References
- PR #5901 (fix: webhook initialization order)&lt;/p&gt;</description>
